Father Set

Father Set

Set is the name of a fictional demon-god within the continuities of Conan the Barbarian and Marvel Universe.

He is apparently an amalgam of the name of the Egyptian god Set and the appearance and characteristics of the Egyptian monster Apep and the Greek mythological figure the Lernaean Hydra. This interpretation of the figure may also be influenced by H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos.

Famous quotes containing the words father and/or set:

    You don’t have to deserve your mother’s love. You have to deserve your father’s. He is more particular.... The father is always a Republican towards his son, and his mother’s always a Democrat.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    it pleaseth me when I see through the meadows
    The tents and pavilions set up, and great joy have I
    When I see o’er the campana knights armed and horses arrayed.

    And it pleaseth me when the scouts set in flight the folk with
    their goods;
    And it pleaseth me when I see coming together after them an host of
    armed men.
    Bertrans De Born (fl. 12th century)
